Cardiovascular Disease

The cardiovascular disease speciality is one of over 30 specialities which bring together communities of clinical practice to provide national networks of research expertise. Our membership is made up of research-interested clinicians and practitioners at both national and local levels. Our job is to ensure that cardiovascular disease studies receive the right support to ensure they are delivered successfully in the NHS.

There are more than seven million people in the United Kingdom living with cardiovascular disease, with over a quarter of all deaths a year resulting from the disease.
